    Obama created the mechanisms that allowed ICE and BORTAC to be deployed to major US cities.

    Did Obama use ICE as secret police? Would Trump not have been able to create the same mechanisms?

    Are you blaming the kid this time?

    Super weird and inaccurate Synology, but yes I would blame the kid?

    at what point do you stop and realize that your partner is actively obstructing you?

    So in your apology because the partner is negligent, you might as well just let the kid run the house and do whatever the fuck they want??

    YET AGAIN, you are purposely misinterpreting my poison into something else, so you have something you can actually argue against, because we’ve already established you agree with the point I’m actually making. So now you are just continuing to argue for the sake of arguing because doing so feeds your moral superiority complex.

    You’re literally watching a sport, with two teams on the field, and telling me “we have to root for one of them” when the sport is literally two teams of white people competing to see who can lynch more dark skinned children.

    Another shitty apology, but in that case, if not rooting a team does nothing to stop it, but rooting for one of the teams spares the life of even a single one of those children, then you would have to be either dumb or heartless self serving piece of shit to not do so. So which one are you?

      I mean this is just stunning. You literally cannot imagine that publicly voicing support for, organizing for, advocating for, and browbeating others on behalf of the team lynching one less brown kid might actually be counterproductive to the real work that needs to happen of dismantling the stadium, arresting the players, and abolishing the sport? You think it’s perfectly reasonable to lend your voice, give them legitimacy, give them your time and effort voluntarily, and even attack people who disagree with that position while they are literally engaging in mass murder and somehow you think you’ll be able to simultaneously build the movement that will tear the place down and eliminate it for ever?

      I mean, I guess fair enough. I wouldn’t work with you if that how you behaved. You can vote for whoever you want, as do I, but you won’t catch me putting effort into defending these people and I wouldn’t trust you to actually do the abolition work necessary if you’re willing to browbeat people for choosing not to participate in the least effective form of civics related to the things that matter most.

      Do you, boo. Root for them crypto-fascist mass murderers! Save that one kid while the other 50 and their parents, and your neighbors, watch you root for their murderers. If that’s what you think brings about solidarity, I guess you sorta have to, right?

        It’s like talking to fucking brick wall. You can parctipate in activism as well as voting you fucking dumbass.
